A modern home in downtown Denver needs a modern skylight.
The owner of this home near the Riverfront Park in Denver became dissatisfied with his acrylic dome skylight. When Julia explained the benefit a replacement with a lowE3 glass skylight would provide in energy efficiency alone, he accepted her proposal.
1980’s technology vs. the 21st century—No contest!
She was amazing
I had the privilege of working with Julia Johns. She was amazing, no pressure just genuine concern with my situation. She went out of her way to make sure things would be perfect. If you have any needs that Skylight Specialist can help you with, you would be wise to ask for Julia.
Acrylic Dome
The best of the acrylic dome skylights have a thermal break between the frame and the interior, but the plastic transmits most of the sun's heat.
Susceptible to hail damage. Often noisy under expansion/contraction. Overall energy inefficient.
LowE3 Glass
Modern lowE3 glass technology is rather remarkable. the SOLARBAN® 70 glass used in the large Skymax skylight transmits much less heat and argon gas between the panes reduces heat transfer.
